Does gas burn more when it’s hot?

278 viewsOther

So where I live there’s a heat advisory saying it’s 95 but feels like 113. Can gas burn or ‘evaporate’ more when it’s hotter outside. I know it’s supposed to burn in the engine but can it burn up faster when it’s hotter outside?

The injection of gasoline into the piston sufficiently aerosolizes the gasoline regardless of temperature. Hot air is less dense, so you’ll have less oxygen coming in through the air intake, so you may get more incomplete combustion.

It can make a difference with gasoline on the ground, but not exactly in an engine.
